SuperTab is a system utility that extends macOS's application switcher beyond the native Command-Tab behavior. It lets you access running apps, recent documents, files, folder contents, clipboard history, and other workspace elements through a customizable tab-row interface. It integrates with macOS System Settings as a preference pane and is used by power users who want faster, more granular access to their applications and files without opening Finder. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.

1 suggestionSuperTab has been rewritten as a native Apple Silicon app (SuperTab 7) by MacPlus Software. The legacy Intel-only versions 4 and 5 are no longer supported and will stop working when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (late 2027). SuperTab 7 is built entirely in Swift and SwiftUI for full native performance on M-series Macs, and is designed for macOS 15.0 and later. To upgrade: visit the MacPlus Software website or your preferred download source to install SuperTab 7. The new version is a complete rewrite rather than an incremental update, so pay attention to the installation instructions and note that your settings from older versions may need to be reconfigured in the new interface. Once installed, the native build will integrate with System Settings as before and deliver noticeably better performance and battery life on Apple Silicon.
